The system is intended for operator-training programs, including construction companies, schools, colleges, and technical education providers. It gives beginners repeatable seat time before they operate an excavator on a real worksite.

How is the Excavator module different from the Backhoe Loader module?

The Excavator module focuses on a dedicated excavator's boom, stick, bucket, swing, and digging workflow. The Backhoe Loader module teaches a machine with a front loader bucket and a separate rear backhoe, so it covers two work ends and two operating roles.
